Although Ella grew up in Germany under Hitler’s regime, being taught from a young age to idolize the Nazi Party, as she reaches adulthood she chooses to become a part of the German Resistance. 

I really knew nothing about the German resistance prior to picking up this book. But after finishing it, I know that I want to learn more. This book was a wonderful balance of fiction and historical information. The author has a gift for creating a sense of place whether the setting was on a snowy mountain or the streets of Germany in the early 1940’s. The pacing was great; I found myself reading before work, on my lunch break and late at night until I finished it. I hope the author continues to write in this genre.

An interesting premise, the story line was twisted enough to keep me reading on and kept me hooked, but I did find at times that there was a little bit too much rambling in places.
The characters are well constructed and Newton has done well to create some very unlikable personalities that make it a thrilling read at times. The timeline did feel a little disjointed in some places, it felt almost like little jumps within the chapters had me having to read back a paragraph or two to work out where I was and what had happened/was happening. 
A good read, but a little dragging in places. An intriguing and adrenaline packed plot that haunts and lingers long after you've read the book, making you wonder "what if".
